We are currently experiencing some issues with the lasso service on bristlecone.forest.net. Lasso may be unavailable sporadically on this server. We'll post more information here as it becomes available.

At this time our shared hosting servers bristlecone and durian are experiencing some elevated traffic and are not responding to requests as quickly as normal. We are working to mitigate the extra load on these servers and expect to have server performance levels return to normal within the hour.

Further updates will be posted here as things develop.

On June 11th, 2008 starting at 00:00 PDT we will be performing an upgrade to the Lasso service on bristlecone.forest.net. This update will increase security, performance and stability of the lasso server. We will be upgrading bristlecone's Lasso from 8.5.4 to 8.5.5. We do not expect this update to take more then 1 hour and as such the downtime associated with this update should be over by 01:00 PDT.

Update: June 11th, 2008 00:57, the update to the Lasso software on bristlecone.forest.net is complete and the server is again serving lasso web pages as expected.

The bristlecone Lasso 8.5 server is currently undergoing emergency maintenance and may be be unavailable for a short time until it is completed.

Our Lasso 8.5 server, bristlecone.forest.net, is going to have it's lasso installation upgraded tonight at 11 pm. There may be 10-15 minutes of downtime during this process.
